ahmad:13610ʿAffān > Hammām > Qatādah

[Machine] One day, they ate, and by Allah, I do not know that the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , ever saw a thin loaf of bread or a skinny sheep until he met with his Lord.  

أحمد:١٣٦١٠حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ قَالَ كُنَّا نَأْتِي أَنَسًا وَخَبَّازُهُ قَائِمٌ قَالَ فَقَالَ

يَوْمًا كُلُوا فَوَاللهِ مَا أَعْلَمُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ رَأَى رَغِيفًا رَقِيقًا وَلَا شَاةً سَمِيطًا حَتَّى لَحِقَ بِرَبِّهِ ﷻ
